ABOUT EZRA

Ezra Fox lives and writes in San Francisco, CA. Their infatuation with poetry began in 2nd grade when they composed their first piece—a dedicated ode to skunks—which earned the honor of "poem of the week" at their school's library checkout counter.

In their work, Ezra explores themes of impermanence, non-duality, lineage, queerness, and spirituality. A Lambda Literary's 2025 Writers Retreat Fellow, they also received the Lili Elbe Memorial Scholarship, which recognizes transgender writers of exceptional promise. Ezra holds an MFA in Creative Writing from Indiana University and a BA in Creative Writing from Ithaca College. Their work appears or is forthcoming in TriQuarterly, EcoTheo Review, Zócalo Public Square, Zone 3, and elsewhere. They were also a finalist for the Editors' Choice Prize in Poetry for Birdcoat Quarterly.

Apart from writing, Ezra maintains a daily practice of reconnecting with their inner child: doing cartwheels, roller-skating, and sharing tea with the beloveds they've been fortunate to know.
